And we are at it again! One of the signature scenes in this film is the arena scene where the kids all come together for dragon training. We through around every idea under the sun for what to use as an arena: long tarps, chicken wire, foam board, and even the idea of NOT using an arena.
Then we passed THIS place.
Matthew and I decided to check it out.
Turns out this park used to be a factory of some kind and it's been weathered away to just its foundation and a few walls. It is so Cool! And I can't believe how perfect it is.
There is a small section of it that still has all four walls standing and even though it is a little smaller than we had envisioned, it is amazing. The walls look duly weathered and old and a(maybe) burned. It's even a little Viking-looking, though they probably would have used stones instead of bricks.
Looking at it from all angles.
Figuring out how big a dragon would be and if it could fit through the door.
Yep, this is the place. Can you imagine it done up in viking banners with barricades and shield-mounts and eight kids running around with weapons. It might just end up being my favorite scene.
